the best explanation of this verse is... " An African woman is ploughing and sowing a field with her baby on her back. The baby is crying from hunger, and she is crying while listening to her baby cry. She could alleviate the intense hunger right now, if she would only grind the seed she is planting into flour and make bread... but where would the harvest be...

It think the reference to sowing and reaping here is key It speaks of the seasons of the life of a Christian. Those who are in mourning now shall not be in a season of mourning forever, if we yield to the Lord, the refining spiritual growth during the period of mourning shall result in a period of joy on the harvest of the "mountain top ". That is not to say that the cycle will stop, but that we will get stronger and stronger in this often recurring process, and that our joy will magnify and become more consistent as we mature spiritually through the "seasons " of life.

In the Old covenant is was more of external righteousness but in the new covenant is the inner righteousness, Higher righteousness, please read Matthew chapter 5,6,7 God bless you , await your response
